Pretend you're a Phasm :)

[WizarDru]

You're a Fiendish Phasm (sounds like a setup for a gag, that). You can polymorph as a standard action to any creature 15 HD or under.

What forms you would take for fight and flight? let's say you're in a cave, deep underground.
Remember that you're limited to Large size or smaller, so things like a Dragon Turtle are right out.

Thoughts?

Depends what I'm fighting.

Let's say you were fighting a party of adventurers, invading your lair.

Planetar. Call out to them, offer a quest of some sort (promise great rewards). When they've got their guards down - or after they have worn themselves out doing the quest, stick'em.

Nice thought, but they'd never buy it, in this location. I've settled on a gelugon for the primary form...now I just need a 'run away very fast' form. Suggestions?

What about one that's been tortured and is chained to the wall by enchanted chains?

I like the way you think!

An earth elemental or xorn might be good to get away with.

I've looked the spell over in the SRD a couple of times now, and it doesn't explicitly state if movement modes are granted or not. I assume they are, but has anyone seen a reference in a FAQ or somewhere in the SRD?

Polymorph only grants physical/natural modes of movement (flight, burrow, swim, and such).

The Xorn's Earth Glide ability could not be used, for example, but the burrow speed could, by digging an actual tunnel, that is.

something with tentacles and improved grab/grapple? Or something that flies and has a ranged attack of some sort?
